But we need to fight for the best position,&quot; said Ateneo head coach Sergio Veloso after the game, as both teams are already out of the running for a Final 4 spot.</p><p>Despite this, however, the Katipunan-based squad refused to give in to their opponents as Ateneo was determined to bounce back from their second-frame setback.</p><p>&quot;Nakita natin nung second set marami na rin kaming errors, pero despite yung mga errors namin, nakita namin na hindi pa rin kami nag give up. Nandon pa rin yung fighting spirit namin, at hahabol kami hangga&#x27;t hindi mag 25,&quot; said De Guzman.</p><p>&quot;Nung second set kasi, nakita naman namin na marami pa ring magandang nagawa namin,&quot; added Doromal.</p><p>&quot;Sabi ni coach, mag focus kami sa mga bagay na alam [naming] nakaka-dominate kami. Naging positive lang kami na maganda yung ginagawa namin, so kailangan lang naming mag focus sa magagandang ginagawa namin and tuloy lang,&quot; she added.</p><p>This helped Ateneo in the following frames, with the Blue Eagles outlasting UE in a close encounter in the third while also following it with a convincing outing in the fourth.</p><p>Meanwhile, Casiey Dongallo led the Recto-based spikers with 27 points that were built on 23 points and four blocks, while following her were Khy Cepada&#x27;s nine markers and Kizzie Madriaga&#x27;s 11 excellent sets.</p><p>Ateneo improved to 4-8, while UE went down to 2-9.</p><p>Regardless of the result of the match, however, both teams are out of the running for a spot in the Final 4 after Far Eastern University&#x27;s triumph over the University of Santo Tomas on Saturday night.</p><p>Ateneo will look to tally more wins as they face De La Salle University on Sunday at the Araneta Coliseum, while UE will be going up against Far Eastern University on Wednesday, also at the Big Dome.</p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/4/13/feu-outlasts-ust-in-5-set-marathon-to-seal-final-4-spot-2125">READ: FEU outlasts UST in five, clinches Final Four spot</a></div><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="3012798"></ivs-player></div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script><div><strong>RELATED VIDEO:</strong></div><div><strong><span class="fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fQ126ZLg3MI?&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></span></strong><br/></div>
